Chapter 1744 The Queen of Hell (15)

There are many fasting habits in Christianity. Although believers often do not insist on it thoroughly, unlike the Saxons, the remains of St. Mark were hidden in a pile of pork when they were smuggled into Venice. Those Saxons would never touch it. bump.

  But there is a bottom line that believers still insist on, that is, the prohibition of cannibalism. After the decline of Protestantism, the United States replaced vegetarianism and Zen Buddhism. It was probably in the 1970s that vegetarianism became popular in the West.

  Brahmins also do not eat meat. They are the upper class in India. Similarly, the early participants of vegetarianism are mainly upper-class elites. Their actions are largely due to moral improvement and physical adjustments.

  Brahmins used to serve as sacrificial priests. They mainly mastered theocratic power and divination. The caste who ruled the people and engaged in military service was the sacred place. According to Buddhism, sacrifices cannot be killed. According to the provisions of the Old Testament and the Pentateuch of Moses, sacrifices can be killed. They have to kill the sacrificed animals, and the internal organs are burned and dusted in a prescribed manner.

  It’s impossible to expect those skinny, vegan, white-collar workers working in Manhattan skyscrapers to join the army with guns. The army is mostly men, and they make trouble without eating them.

  Who can imagine that picture? A US Marine Corps commando who can eat raw beef and a cheerleader who insists on "vegetarianism" in order to maintain his body are in desperate situation. Which of them is more likely to escape?

  Eating meat or vegetarian is originally a neutral term, but it has been criticized because of design ethics.

  Humans are omnivores. Because they eat everything, they eliminate other creatures and stand at the top of the food chain. Once humans fall from the altar and return to the food chain, they will face the fate of being hunted by other creatures. Herbivores have horns. What will humans use to resist?

  Oh, people still have wisdom, weapons, guns, and missiles. Why don’t the sacrifices try to recite Buddhist scriptures to quiet the animals?

  When Roosevelt implemented the New Deal, he called on the American people not to put money in their own homes, but in a qualified and creditable bank, through radio, like a fireside conversation, and this solved the problem of deflation.

  Although he is a disabled person, he is a good president.

  However, it's just that his personal ability is excellent, and he won't be able to do anything without cooperating with his people.

  There is no shortage of people who want to be leaders in this world, but it lacks the masses who cooperate with leaders. The streets are full of people, but if they are all opponents, the leader will not be able to do anything, and even worry about being beaten to death by the masses.

  The city is a place with a high crime rate. Some communities are dangerous. Bruce Wayne’s parents were shot and killed by two thieves.

  It’s not always safe to go to the country. You must be equipped with guns if you live in a big house.

  A society full of anxiety, anxiety and sharp contradictions is ruled by a group of elites who lack tolerance and emphasize personal success and political correctness. They solve problems like the villagers in Salem and pour dirty water on others.

  They talked nonsense, and the evidence they provided could not withstand questions beyond reasonable doubt, but they still forcibly passed what they wanted to do. This is very Puritan style, although they left Europe in the first place to avoid royal power.

It is a torment to live with these unconscious and lifeless people. The terrible thing is that they have to spread their way of life to the entire human society, so that everyone can live "religious" and "decent" like them. life.

  Since May, Samuel Paris will walk five miles a week to the town of Salem for interrogation.

  After the Governor came, Cotton Mather left his home and Inglis Mather served as his theological adviser.

   "Superstar" also has an identity, which is the baptism he gave to Governor Phipps. At that time, the Governor had been 22 years since his infancy, and the Orthodox Christians opposed the late baptism. They doubted whether this "born and raised" governor of Massachusetts could represent their interests. Compared with the new king's charter, they hoped that the old king's charter would elect a new governor through election instead of being appointed by the king.

  Danfors is not really concerned about the innocence of the defendant, he is busy forming a wizarding court.

  At that time, New England had two different legal systems, one was England and the other was Massachusetts. After being sworn in, the judges of the Wizarding Court need to ask for help from existing experts. Four of the nine judges in the court are close friends of Cotton Mather. After George Burroughs was arrested, the nature of the trial has changed. Before the jurors gathered, the court issued 11 arrest warrants, including John Alden who had just returned from the front.

   The sixty-six-year-old captain is the eldest son of a founder family in Plymouth. He once arrived in Maine with the strongest legion in Massachusetts to negotiate for the captives taken away by the Indians in York County.

  He has nothing to do with Salem. He is only very close to Samuel Sewell, the judge appointed by the Governor. When he was the captain, he had long-term business with Sewell’s father-in-law.

   But under the accusation of several villagers, he appeared in the dock of the temporary court on May 31st.

  Witchcraft trials in Europe have always been like this, but the 32-person joint letter submitted by John Wise still makes Hassan feel uneasy. He participated in the trial almost from start to finish. If the plaintiffs were really lying and making up stories, then Hassan's life would be difficult in the future. So before he decided to test the girls, he let Alden, who had never been to Salem, the girls completely unknown, hide in the crowd without guards, and let the girls find out who tortured them. .

  At that time, the chapel was dark and the sight was not good. The girls had to leave the plaintiff's booth and came to the crowd to look at the faces of those people one by one.

  Captain Orlandon, with a sword, strode into the chapel, standing secretly among the crowd watching them.

  He was not the only soldier dressed like him in the chapel. The girls hesitated and pointed to another soldier in the chapel.

  At this time, the judge asked Orlandon to stand outside. His bicorne hat blocked the light. The girls turned around, circled him, and laughed.

  During the negotiation, Alden didn’t understand why some children who were captured by Wabanaki like "bears and wolves" would rather stay with the Indians than return to Puritan society.

  Perhaps he understood at this moment. At the same time, the "cursed plaintiff" accused Alden of selling arms to the enemy, and the girls accused him of sleeping with Indian women and torturing them with swords.

  So the guards present immediately disarmed Alden.

The marshal took him out to wait for trial. Maybe he doesn’t need to be tried in public like other people accused of witchcraft. He will go to the Ingersoll Tavern. But regardless of whether his accusation of profiteering is true or not, he is indeed in Maine. The fog and blood was like a fish in the water, while the others were ruined and killed there.

  So the cheerleader escaped the desperate situation, but the soldiers lost.

Paris’s wife, Elizabeth, was overwhelmed and on the verge of collapse. This was not just because Paris was busy with witchcraft trials and neglected her family’s obligations. She also heard of one thing that the wives of Paris’s first three pastors were dead. Their souls are said to still haunt Salem.

  Paris still prayed for her after the interrogation. When returning to the chaotic house at night, Abigail's screams could be heard.

  In addition to him, Chief Justice Stoughton also felt tired. He wanted to clean up the wizard as soon as possible, and then restore peace and order, even if the evidence became weaker.

  In this small town with a population of 8,000, fear rumbling, complaints one after another, signs of the end keep appearing, and pastors are calculating the day of Christ’s second coming.

  Stay and did not leave Andros felt that his opportunity had come and reported the situation in New England to Britain, but Inglis Mather did not convey the disappointment of the people to London.

  Instead, he said in the report that “the people are very satisfied with the new charter”.

  At that time, it was still far from the time when the governor announced the suspension of arrests, and the trial will continue.
